Yeh led bulbs, sorry should have said in op. Bulbs are 4.6w, standby 0.3w.

Hi all, Wanting to wire up 7x gu10 sockets for spotlights on a media wall into a 13amp plug. Few questions: 1. Best practice here to wire from plug to first lamp socket, then daisy loop off to other lamps? They will be controlled via smart system, so just need to be powered all in one hit, not...

It's not cobblers, it's the flue building regs.

Interesting suggestion. So according to building regs is it only the flue that needs to be spaced from openings, or internally are there restrictions also? Boiler edges etc too close...

Flow ok but not super high. We'd be keen to get rid of the tanks to avoid the leak opportunity in the future. Boiler in the airing cupboard isn't an issue for noise

Baxi 630 (or the conventional equivalent of that)

Suggested boiler in old airing cupboard location. It would be a better location and ultimately we would probably put any extra to it in order to have a combi rather than conventional. House is semi, 3 bed, 1 bath and 7 rads, so more suited to a combi really.

Flue can be seen at door height Your right insurance is hiding behind betterment, and already said they will replace old for new but relocation is not their problem.

Flu in old location was out of side wall. There is a bedroom above kitchen and old location so can't run the flu up through there without losing space in the bedroom. Apologies I should have said ceiling before and not roof in my first response, my bad.

Unfortunately not possible for us, the boiler was already close to the ceiling, so we can't go anywhere with the boiler but a different room completely.

My home has recently had a burst pipe and damage as a result to the boiler that was in the kitchen below. It was a conventional boiler with cold and hot water tanks. I'm told by plumbers that I'd had in that the boiler can't be located back where it was as its in a space between an opening...

Hive all installed on wall with fresh piece of 5C cable. Just waiting for next opportunity for power off to wire into boiler and also adapt the fused spur as above.

So quick update, had a gander behind the stat (again) and the fused spur. S***t show of cabling but I've got a good handle on what's where now. Stat - has 3c & e from fused spur, where behind the wall socket it picks up the t3 and t4 connections on boiler side. Fused Spur - mains in top left...

1.5 or 1 or 0.75mm for the hive?

Nope, only got 3 core flex and t&e. I'll get a metre of 4 core. Am I right in assuming I don't need to run an earth to the hive only the L,N,3,4 as ianmcd said. Will the stat not have power from the Spur?
